Would you believe 75 STUN is a typo? Mostly because it is. I notice
that I gave The Tick 75 Stun. Arthur has 30, maybe 35 tops. (I don't

I agree, Arthur is nothing but a little nothing, but damn, if he doesn't
have like 4-6d6 Luck, with all the danger and trouble he gets himself out
of (somehow)...
